I was trying to do some personalizing my 2012 Grand Sport and when I push the Options button it reads "no options available" what gives?

EVRose

It means only the first 2 fobs that were programmed to the car can access the options menu. The second 2 cannot. You must be using number 3 or 4.

cclive

The fob that you used when turning on the car is programmed as #3 or #4. Options are only available on #1 and #2.

I doubled with EV...I agree with him.

I was afraid of that,I bought my vette used with 750 miles on it,came with one fob,I bought another and had the dealer program it. Now I original says no fob detected so I have been using the new one for several months.what should I do?

cclive

You need to check the operation of the glovebox slot and then use the long procedure to re-program the fobs...a 30 minute job. Read these instructions fully before getting started:

Use the "long procedure" to erase all fobs and reprogram the 2 you have as #1 & #2. Make sure the batteries in each are fresh.

ChevyDave

i triple with CC & EV... agree with them

(duh , slaps self for adding nothing to conversation)

Using the long procedure to reprogram your fobs also deletes all other fobs that you don't have. Those old fobs somewhere can no longer start your car.

bucwheat

Thanks so much for the advice guys,one question should I have both fobs in the car when programming them.

cclive

No...read those instructions through before starting...they explain it all.

Vette_DD

Those instructions will tell you where the fobs need to be.

Clive, the fob that reads no fob detected will crank the car in the glove box slot but when removed it still won't work,I tried to reprogram the short route but at step 6 the DIC does not respond. Can you help,note this FOB had a battery installed last year. It worked fine for several months then one day it would not unlock door and DIC ....No fob detected.

EVRose

If the car starts when that fob is in the glove box slot then it does not need to be reprogrammed. I would change the battery again. You don't know how old a "new" battery is when you put it in. Make sure the contacts that surround the battery are good and the battery doesn't move around at all when its installed.

bucwheat

The car starts with it in the glove slot,that's all it does,I'll pick up a new battery today,thanks Rose.

Rose,you were right,the battery was bad,I put in a new one tried the door locks and it worked ,it cranked right up ,can't thank you enough.lesson learned just because a battery was changed less than a year ago don't mean it's good,I do have a question should the board be loose in the FOB?

EVRose

Your welcome! I don't know about the board being loose since my fob is the older 05-07 version. I've never seen the guts of the newer one.

RocketDawg

I changed the batteries in both my fobs a couple months ago, and both boards were loose. So I assume it's normal for them to be that way.

Thanks Dawg.
